CD's


NOTE: This year for the first time we are transitioning to digital CD's -- Compact Discs. Cassettes will no longer be available. All CD's will be copied after the Seminar and mailed.


All sessions will be recorded digitally. You may gain more benefit from the CD of a session which you can hear repeatedly than attending the actual workshop. CD's will be made in the 2-4 weeks following the Seminar and will be mailed to you. They will be 75 minutes of the nonstop recording of the workshop.


All Workshops are 1:15 in length

CD Order Form

CD's are $4.00 each. Any 10 ($40.00 value) are $35.00

The complete set of 51 CD's ($179.00 value) is $160.00
Print the form and mail to Christian Writers Seminar, Redwood Chapel, 19300 Redwood Rd., Castro Valley, CA 94546. Make check payable to Redwood Chapel. Be sure to include shipping.
